Cozy Conversations with The Sister Project

Welcome back, WIFs!
This week, Lauren and Michelle are talking about what it feels like to live in a world where there is always something happening, something to read, something to worry about, and another notification waiting for us.
They have a candid conversation about information overload, social media, and the nonstop stream of bad news that can make it difficult to simply be present in our own lives. From climate anxiety and worries about the future to the rapid changes happening with AI, they unpack some of the bigger things taking up space in our minds and ask an important question: do we have to know every single thing happening in the world.
Because the truth is, humans were not made for this type of information overload and constant onslaught of news.
As always, there is plenty of cozy catching up and wheezy laughing along the way. It’s not all doom and gloom, that’s for sure.
Press play, get cozy, and settle in for a conversation about navigating an overwhelming world, finding a little more space from the noise, and remembering that sometimes the best parts of life are the very simple ones.

Welcome back, WIFs.
For this mini cozy of Bring Back the 90s, Lauren and Michelle are talking about something they never thought would become trendy again: going analog.
Inspired by a Today Show segment about Gen Z embracing a more analog lifestyle, the sisters dive into what it actually meant to live without smartphones, social media, and everything being instantly documented. Film cameras, printed photos, journals, cash, phone calls, prank calls, sleepovers, crafting, and just figuring things out without immediately looking it up.
They reminisce about dropping off a roll of film at Walgreens and waiting to see how the pictures turned out, making photo albums, calling friends on the phone, using Star 69, paying with cash, traveling with phone cards, and even keeping a travel junk journal filled with receipts and little things collected along the way.
Maybe Gen Z isn't actually trying to become 90s kids. Maybe they're just realizing that there is something pretty great about being bored, making things with your hands, talking to people, and having experiences that aren’t immediately posted online.
Press play, get cozy, and take a little trip back to a time when life was a whole lot more analog—and a lot more fun.
And if you have your own niche 80s or 90s memory, prank call story, or old-school tradition, the sisters want to hear it.
As always, stay cozy.

Welcome back, WIFs!
This week, Lauren and Michelle are talking about the people, places, stories, and simple pleasures that make life a little more meaningful.
They start with a cozy catch-up from Lauren’s time in New York City for the Yahoo Nonfiction Hotlist, where she found herself delighted by everything from the subway and the unexpected kindness of strangers.
Then the conversation turns to Dolly Parton and the many layers of a woman who became so much more than a music icon.
From the story behind “I Will Always Love You” to the millions of books connected to her Imagination Library, there is plenty to appreciate about the woman behind the wigs and rhinestones.
And, of course, they wrap things up with their simple joys of the week—because sometimes the smallest moments, like grocery shopping with your kid or watching your children genuinely enjoy each other’s company, end up being the ones you remember most.
Press play, get cozy, and settle in for a conversation about looking beyond the surface, appreciating the stories behind the people we admire, and finding a little more joy in the everyday.

Look mom, we made it to 400! This week, Lauren and Michelle are celebrating a pretty big milestone: 400 episodes of Cozy Conversations with The Sister Project®. After years of conversations, laughter, life updates, and plenty of cozy chaos, the sisters are taking a moment to look back at what it means to keep creating, showing up, and doing something you love.
They chat about the reality of sticking with a creative project for the long haul, what they've loved most about making the podcast, and what happens when you decide to change direction and go after a dream—even when it feels a little scary. The conversation then turns to Anthony’s documentary, How We Roll, that was selected for the 2026 Yahoo Nonfiction Hotlist, making it one of just 20 films chosen from more than 900 submissions.
And with 400 episodes under their belt and Anthony’s documentary which Lauren co-produced, the three hosts have a very exciting announcement to share! You MUST tune in to find out more.
Press play, get cozy, and celebrate 400 episodes with the sisters as they talk about following your curiosity, making things you're proud of, taking the leap when the timing feels right, and enjoying the ride along the way.
Because sometimes the best part isn't knowing exactly where you're going—it's seeing what happens when you keep rolling.

Welcome back, WIFs.
Back by popular demand, Lauren and Michelle are bringing you another mini cozy from their Bring Back the 90's series.
And this time, they're going back to school.
Before back-to-school shopping meant clicking a link, buying a pre-selected supply box, and checking everything off a list, there was something special about walking the aisles and picking out exactly what you wanted.
In this episode, the sisters take a nostalgic trip back to 90's back-to-school season, from Venture shopping trips and Five Star notebooks to Trapper Keepers, Lisa Frank folders, smelly pens, Dr. Grip pens, eraser caps, pencil cases, and the highlighters that were somehow way more exciting than they needed to be.
Then there's lunch.
Capri Suns, Lunchables, Kudos bars, Gushers, Fruit by the Foot, Ecto Cooler, Dunkaroos, SnackWell's, Handy Snacks, and those classic bologna sandwiches packed with love.
And because this is the 90's, there are plenty of unexpected memories along the way—including paper bag book covers, rubber cement, white-out, eraser vacuums, and the fact that we were apparently trusted with paper guillotines.
Press play, get cozy, and take a walk down the back-to-school aisles with Lauren and Michelle.
Because the 90's were cozy—and maybe it's time to bring a little bit of that back into our adult lives, too.
